Dr. Jeremy L. Rickli received his B.S. and M.S. Degrees in Mechanical Engineering from Michigan Technological University in 2006 and 2008 and received his Ph.D. in Industrial and Systems Engineering from Virginia Tech prior to joining Wayne State in 2013. At Wayne State, he created the Manufacturing and Remanufacturing Systems Laboratory (MaRSLab). MaRSLab targets fundamental and applied research in manufacturing, remanufacturing, and disassembly processes and systems while encouraging considerations for sustainability and life cycle thinking in design, manufacturing, use, and recovery. Research thrusts include: disassembly automation for enhanced component and material recovery; integrating disassembly and remanufacturing decisions into design phases; the interaction between manufacturing operators and collaborative robots; the potential for point cloud measurement data to transform manufacturing quality monitoring and remanufacturing core condition assessment; and managing core acquisition in remanufacturing and value recovery considering uncertain core quality, quantity.
